Wonder Years, The - "What If We [Swam] Into Nothing?" Lyrics






We fell asleep last night watching TV
and the images worked their way into my dreams.
We were watching turtles climbing the beach.
The way she's looking at him is how you're looking at me.
So if you miss me, or you get lonely,
then you can swim back (can swim back)

You'll swim back to me
and I'll be watching the sea
for when you dance over the breakers and waltz up the beach.
Swim back to me, cause you've been gone since spring.
You know that we can't breath alone in the Gulf Stream.

It's you with those sleepy eyes and heart-shaped shell
that keep me awake at night.
So, meet me in the shallows off of Cozumel.
We'll live our lives covered by moonlight.
Maybe we were brought together by the ebb tide.
It pulled the world beneath me and left you by my side.

So swim back to me
and I'll be watching the sea
for when you dance over the breakers and waltz up the beach.
Swim back to me, cause you've been gone since spring.
You know that we can't breath alone in the Gulf Stream.

What if we swam into nothing? At least you'd still be beside me.
So if we swam into nothing, I'd still be smiling.

So swim back to me
and I'll be watching the sea
for when you dance over the breakers and waltz up the beach.
Swim back to me, cause you've been gone since spring.
You know that we can't breath alone in the Gulf Stream.

What if we swam into nothing?

    We fell asleep last night watching TV
    and the images worked their way into my dreams.
    We were watching turtles climbing the beach.
    The way she's looking at him is how you're looking at me.
    So if you miss me, or you get lonely,
    then you can swim back (can swim back)
    You'll swim back to me
    and I'll be watching the sea
    for when you dance over the breakers and waltz up the beach.
    Swim back to me, cause you've been gone since spring.
    You know that we can't breath alone in the Gulf Stream.
    It's you with those sleepy eyes and heart-shaped shell
    that keep me awake at night.
    So, meet me in the shallows off of Cozumel.
    We'll live our lives covered by moonlight.
    Maybe we were brought together by the ebb tide.
    It pulled the world beneath me and left you by my side.
    So swim back to me
    and I'll be watching the sea
    for when you dance over the breakers and waltz up the beach.
    Swim back to me, cause you've been gone since spring.
    You know that we can't breath alone in the Gulf Stream.
    What if we swam into nothing? At least you'd still be beside me.
    So if we swam into nothing, I'd still be smiling.
    So swim back to me
    and I'll be watching the sea
    for when you dance over the breakers and waltz up the beach.
    Swim back to me, cause you've been gone since spring.
    You know that we can't breath alone in the Gulf Stream.
    What if we swam into nothing?

    God, what I would do to mosh to What if we swam in 2019...

  4. c.... ....

    Why did they take this album off spotify?

    c.... ....

    chinhead7390 because they don’t think this album represents the sound of the band anymore... or at all.

  5. L.... S....

    3 years apart but she swam back :,)

    Lyrics:
    [Verse 1]
    We fell asleep last night watching TV
    And the images worked their way into my dreams
    We were watching turtles climbing the beach
    The way she's looking at him is how you're looking at me

    [Pre-Chorus]
    So if you miss me, or you get lonely
    Then you can swim back (Just swim back)

    [Chorus]
    You'll swim back to me
    And I'll be watching the sea
    For when you dance over the breakers
    And waltz up the beach

    Swim back to me
    Cause you've been gone since spring
    You know that we can't breathe
    Alone in the Gulf Stream

    [Verse 2]
    It's you with those sleepy eyes and heart-shaped shell
    That keep me awake at night
    So, meet me in the shallows off of Cozumel
    We'll live our lives covered by moonlight


    [Pre-Chorus]
    Maybe we were brought together by the ebb tide
    It pulled the world beneath me and left you by my side

    [Chorus]
    So swim back to me
    And I'll be watching the sea
    For when you dance over the breakers
    And waltz up the beach

    Swim back to me
    Cause you've been gone since spring
    You know that we can't breathe
    Alone in the Gulf Stream

    [Breakdown]
    What if we swam into nothing?
    At least you'd still be beside me
    So if we swam into nothing?
    I'd still be smiling

    [Chorus]
    So swim back to me
    And I'll be watching the sea
    For when you dance over the breakers
    And waltz up the beach


    Swim back to me
    Cause you've been gone since spring
    You know that we can't breathe
    Alone in the Gulf Stream

    [Outro]
    What if we swam into nothing?

    I heard this on the radio tonight.. I'm not really into this, punk-y, sound.. but.. I don't know.. something about the right timing, the right circumstances.. I might never forget this song.
    Took me two hours to find it. Of course.. it's about, 'that' girl...

  8. T.... ....

    Pop punk at it's finest

  9. v.... ....

    i wonder why. no, i'm not being sarcastic.

  10. J.... K....

    The wonder years said they dont play these songs cause they dont like them

  11. T.... M....

    alternative... lol

  12. r.... ....

  14. D.... ....

  15. M.... W....

    When I saw these guys live, someone shouted "WHAT IF WE SWAM!" and Soupy jokingly went "That wasn't us" and then one of the guitarists said, "But its a good question, what IF we swam?" :')
